Horde of Notions - An Elemental Tribal deck
Question: "Do Psychies evolve into new forms like other mon games? Is it like an Invizimals situation where the name stays the same but they evolve into bigger more advanced forms?" Illustration: Process of a Derbling (Psychie of Playfulness) transforming into Dullien (Psychie of Boredom) and back when exposed to Sadness + Time and Joy + Play respectively.
Shamato, Psychie of Shame. Shamato is a tomato plant with a bright red tomato for a face. It has a constantly wincing expression and its vine body wraps itself around a stockade to act as a torso. This Psychie cowers away from the gaze of others it as if it has wronged them just by existing. Its face turns a deeper red the more company it finds itself in.
"What would be the perfect Psychies to represent the main cast of inside out?" Illustration depicts Petrillop (Psychie) and Fear (Inside Out) both jolted up in shock at seeing each other, frozen in fear.
"What would be the perfect Psychies to represent the main cast of Inside Out?" Illustration depicts Sulleech (Psychie) and Disgust (Inside Out) making repulsed faces at each other.
"What would be the perfect Psychies to represent the main cast of Inside Out?" Illustration shows Cruciboil (Psychie) and Anger (Inside Out) shouting at each other with fire erupting from the tops of their heads.
"What would be the perfect Psychies to represent the main cast of inside out?" Illustration depicts Droopery (Psychie) and Sadness (Inside Out) huddled up around a sad memory orb together.
"What would be the perfect Psychies to represent the main cast of inside out?" Illustration depicts Derbling (Psychie) and Joy (Inside Out) bowing to each other politely with big smiles on their faces.
"Out of all the Psychies you've made, which one would you say is the most common/prevalent in the world? (Optional bonus question: Which of each type is the most common?)" Illustration depicts two Florgetta brushing away dusty old memories with a broom and feather duster.
Gnomentum, Psychie of Patience. Gnomentum is a small gnome with an oversized hat which has a fishing line hanging from the end. At the end of the line is a small orange fish, trapped in a bucket shaped block of ice. Gnomentum has its beard wrapped around it like a plaited scarf. This Psychie waits so long to catch its target that even the water in which it fishes freezes over. It knows that a big catch will come along eventually, no matter how long it takes.
Fluddle, Psychie of Kindness. Fluddle is a penguine-like creature wearing a pink and yellow sweater. It holds two knitting needles from which strings from its belly knot together to create a sweater.
Miravice, Psychie of Jealousy. Miravice is a brass coloured mirror with 6 segmented legs and 4 gemstone-like eyes. In its jaws, it holds the glass mirror reflecting a wistful expression. This Psychie relentlessly follows those that have what it wants so that it can capture their reflection. When it is able to perfectly reflect the desired traits of its target, its focus shifts to a new subject to start the cycle anew.
Wushtep, Psychie of Excitement. Wushtep is a lion dancer, a practice often seen in Chinese new year celebrations. It is reared up on its back legs, showing off its sneakers with a wide smile on its face. Undeterred by uncertainty, this Psychie bounds forth into the unknown with a glow in its eyes. It dances frantically wherever it goes and lifts the mood of those it meets.
Rawyrm, Psychie of Hunger. Rawyrm is a round bird-like creature that resembles an apple with a worm through it. From its mouth, a long worm like creature protrudes out where its tongue would be as it bares its teeth. Rawyrm also has a long tail which also resembles that of a worm. No matter how much this Psychie eats, its hunger is never satisfied. It has a long worm-like appendage coming from its mouth that does all of the eating for it, though it's unclear whether it shares with the rest of the body.
Hubrick, Psychie of Ambition. Hubrick is a tower of turtles in the shape of a castle rampart with brick-like designs on their shells. The bottom turtle has a set of bars over its face, while the top holds a flag waving high in the air. They work together to build the tallest stack that anyone has ever seen but each one aspires to be at the top spot some day. When a Hubrick tower gets too tall, it becomes much easier to topple.
Gnashroom, Psychie of Terror. Gnashroom is a white mushroom with a skull shaped cap, dotted with large red spots that look like eyes, along with a toothy mouth. Below is a shy looking face covering itself up with small hands. The stalk of the fungus walks around on spider-like roots. Gnashroom is a very skittish Psychie that uses its decorative cap to scare anything that would harm it. This proves so effective that even Gnashroom is terrified of its own reflection.
Shteinie - Psychie of Temptation Shteinie is a spirit-like creature made of a bubbling golden brew coming out of a beer stein. It has a large white beard made of bubbles and arms crossed over its chest. This Psychie is very good at convincing people to do what it wants or, in fact, convincing them to do what they always wanted to deep down. After all, everyone deserves some time to indulge themselves.
Solem, Psychie of Sympathy. Solem is a large four armed stone golem with opaline crystals running across its body in large stripes. It is cradling an opaline doll that appears to be a smaller version of itself. Both the doll and itself have a large scar across their chests while the larger golem has spears stuck into its back. This Psychie cradles a fragile doll and uses its body as a shield to protect it. Its tears are able to heal wounds but, in doing so, it deepens the cracks lining its body.
Illustration of a speculative Mega Machamp with 6 metallic arms, each wielding golden knuckle dusters. Machamp's usual champion belt has been replaced with a big red cross instead.
Duarmor, Psychie of Trust. Duarmor is a two headed ant with one acting as a shield on its front end and the other acting as a sword on its back end. It is black with grey and golden metallic accents. Both heads work together in harmony, complimenting each other's strengths and diminishing their weaknesses. Even if the world is against them, they know they will always have each other's backs.
Roevenant, Psychie of Desperation. Roevenant is a red zombie salmon with skeletal claws reaching out from under it to drag itself along. It has a golden egg in its mouth and one for each eye. Its nose is hooked by a fish hook which pulls its mouth open. Roevenant have sacrificed everything to for their goal. They crawl on their belly, dragging themselves ever closer to their objective and will stop at nothing until they reach it.
Quaragami, Psychie of Doubt. Quaragami is an oragami dragon with a decision maker for a head. It consists of four colours of blue, yellow, green and pink with markings of ones and zeroes across its face. Whenever it is confused about something, Quaragami will open and close its mouth in random directions until it comes up with an idea. This goes on for quite some time and regularly leaves it folded and crumpled.

Serabetta, Psychie of Tranquility Serabetta is a blue coloured betta fish with a teardrop shaped body. It has 3 purple eyes, long ribbon-like fins and what looks like headphones either side of its head. When water passes over its body, it produces a humming sound that soothes those who hear it. Although it is a seamingly laid-back Psychie, it constantly experiences a crushing pressure around it that forces it to move very little.
Melistone, Psychie of Perfection. Melistone is a rolling grindstone wearing a black facemask with sharp teeth at the front. It is surrounded by swirling ribbons with one holding a dull blade with the echo of a sharp sword extruding from it. This Psychie has spent its entire life sharpening a blade again and again to make it slice through anything. The blade has been sharpened so much that there is barely any blade left, just the concept of sharpness itself.
